TIME STANDS STILL is gone, THE BEST MAN is in the home stretch, and auditions are coming up for PHOTOGRAPH 51! Only at the Little Theatre!

Good morning friends of the Little Theatre

Thank you to Jill Turnbow and the cast/crew of Time Stand Still. We had a great run last weekend!

The Best Man is in the home stretch. Dave is putting up the flag wall and finishing up the major set pieces this week. Opening night is already completely sold out!

It’s A Wonderful Life begins music rehearsals this Wednesday. Larry Kaml has been contracted as musical director for the production. Blocking rehearsals begin in earnest after the opening of The Best Man. To get your tickets click HERE. To check out a short video review of the original film, check THIS out.

AUDITIONS for Photograph 51, a staged reading directed by Michael Siebrass will take place this THURSDAY at 6:30 at the Little Theatre. The production will run for two nights only: November 9 and 10 at 7:00 PM. To see the complete audition details, please click HERE.

The Board of Directors will hold its annual retreat this Saturday. Thank you to Ron Burkhart for hosting this meeting!

I am attaching the master calendar for this week (and NEXT!) at the Little Theatre. We will soon have 5 different productions in various stages of rehearsal using the theatre building, so please be respectful of space, volume, and prop storage. We have started finding trash in the theatre, green room, and rehearsal room in the morning. Please dispose of any trash before you leave the space. We have ACT classes here nearly every afternoon, and it’s difficult to stay ahead of the trash curve if when people leave it in the various rooms. Thank you! Please look the calendars over carefully and let me know if anything needs to be changed by this Wednesday (tomorrow) at noon. Thank you!
